10 Days of Halloween: True Ghosts 3

Amidst the rustle of silken garments, an old woman in black appears to those near death at a Nevada hospital. A desperate swimmer on the verge of drowning is pulled to safety by a fair-haired young man-whom she later discovers is her long-deceased uncle. And a hooded specter without a face terrorizes a family, forcing them to flee from their home.

Since 1948, FATE magazine has published true eyewitness accounts from ordinary people who've had extraordinary run-ins with the inhabitants of the spirit realm. This collection, dating back to the early 1900s, brings you dozens of compelling stories of ghostly visitors and haunted places, time-bending vortexes, and divine guidance from beyond.

When I first received my copy in the mail from the publisher, I was thrilled. It has story after story of chilling ghost stories and things that go bump in the night. A great read for a spooky Halloween night!
